Checks Are Still Big in the Business World

business checkIn at least one regard, we all live double lives. For part of the day, we are consumers, going about our grocery shopping and perhaps even browsing for luxury goods. The rest of the time, we are the producers or suppliers creating or marketing our goods and services to others. In my life as a consumer, I’ve noticed that few people are writing out personal checks these days. In the line at the supermarket, most people pull out a debit or credit card.

The same cannot be said in business, however, where checks remain a mainstay of the professional world. Check stubs leave a paper trail for auditing purposes, and making out business checks is often as easy as a few clicks and keystrokes on a computer. This time-honored method of payment and receiving is not likely to be going anywhere soon. It’s best to have a supply of business checks when it’s time to pay employees and consultants.

FDIC Study of Bank Overdraft Programs

FDIC Study of Bank Overdraft Programs


In 2006, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) initiated a two-part study to gather empirical data on the types, characteristics, and use of overdraft programs operated by FDIC-supervised banks. The study was undertaken in response to the recent rapid growth in the use of automated overdraft programs, defined as programs in which the bank honors a customer’s overdraft obligations using standardized procedures to determine whether the nonsufficient fund (NSF) transaction qualifies for overdraft coverage. Little empirical data have been available on these programs, their features, their managing practices, the fees imposed, and consumer usage patterns. (This includes personal checks and business checks that are used)

Data and information for the FDIC’s study were gathered through a survey of a sample of banks that represented 1,171 FDIC-supervised institutions, and a separate data request of customer account and transaction level data from a smaller set of 39 institutions.

The two-part study was designed to obtain the following types of information related to overdraft programs:

  • characteristics, features, and fees of overdraft programs;
  • transaction-processing policies;
  • marketing and disclosure practices;
  • internal controls and monitoring practices;
  • the role of vendors and third parties in overdraft program implementation;
  • NSF-related fee income and growth.
  • The customer account and transaction-level data collection was designed to gather information on the provision of overdraft services on customer accounts, the occurrence of NSF activity covered under automated overdraft programs, and the characteristics of customer accounts that tend to incur the highest volume of overdraft fees.

    The FDIC believes that objective information on these programs will help policymakers make better informed policy decisions and will help the public better understand the features and costs related to automated overdraft programs. The study results also will help the banking industry develop more effective overdraft programs to better serve consumers.

    Dow spikes to 13-month high

    A better-than-expected housing market report, a weak dollar and a surge in commodities are pushing the market to new 2009 highs.

    NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) — Stocks surged Monday, with the Dow touching its highest point in more than a year, on a strong housing report and a rally in commodities.

    The dollar’s initial weakness versus the euro helped lift gold to another record, putting the precious metal within $36 of $1,200 an ounce. However, the dollar staged a comeback by the early evening.

    The Dow Jones industrial average (INDU) gained 133 points, or 1.2%, closing at 10,450.95, its highest point since October 2, 2008. The Dow rose as much as 177 points in the morning, hitting 10,495.61 — the highest trading level since Oct. 3, 2008.

    The Nasdaq composite (COMP) climbed 30 points, or 1.4%, closing short of a 13-month high hit last week. The S&P 500 (SPX) jumped 15 points, or 1.4% but ended short of its 13-month high hit last week.  This is great. Small business that are a fresh start will need business checks to help them grow.

    Who is the FDIC?

    The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) preserves and promotes public confidence in the U.S. financial system by insuring deposits in banks and thrift institutions for at least $250,000; by identifying, monitoring and addressing risks to the deposit insurance funds; and by limiting the effect on the economy and the financial system when a bank or thrift institution fails.

    An independent agency of the federal government, the FDIC was created in 1933 in response to the thousands of bank failures that occurred in the 1920s and early 1930s. Since the start of FDIC insurance on January 1, 1934, no depositor has lost a single cent of insured funds as a result of a failure.

    The FDIC receives no Congressional appropriations – it is funded by premiums that banks and thrift institutions pay for deposit insurance coverage and from earnings on investments in U.S. Treasury securities. With an insurance fund totaling more than $17.3 billion, the FDIC insures more than $4 trillion of deposits in U.S. banks and thrifts – deposits in virtually every bank and thrift in the country. FDIC covers your business checks and personal checks. FDIC dont care if you ordered cheap business checks from someone or not. Your money with the bank is covered with FDIC

    False Representations of FDIC-Owned Real Estate Properties for Sale – November 4, 2009

    The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is warning the general public and interested investors of false claims from various entities (individuals and companies) claiming to represent the FDIC in the sales of FDIC-owned properties.

    These individuals and companies present a common theme. First, they claim to have “inside access” and, secondly, they attempt to charge fees or collect money up front from potential buyers of FDIC Owned Real Estate (ORE) properties with promises of steep discounts off appraised values. Information on ORE assets in the FDIC’s inventory is free to the general public. Any person approached by an individual or business entity with an offer requiring upfront fees and/or the disclosure of personal bank information should exercise extreme caution.

    The FDIC has contracted with and authorized a number of asset management companies to market, sell, and maintain FDIC ORE properties. In representing the FDIC, they are not brokers or brokerage services firms. Rather, they are asset managers who contract with licensed real estate brokers and other vendors in the disposition FDIC-owned properties. Dont let them get a hold to your business checks.

    This holiday season is going to be a great HOLIDAY for the spammers. Cash is always a good way to pay for things. Debit or credit card are good as well, but what can you do to become safer? Get a pre-paid debit card, and use it vs. your debit card that is attached to your business or personal account. That way your pre-paid will be used for a short time and the criminals will have a hard time getting your money.

    Their was a woman that lost her $20 out of the atm. Come to find out, it was counterfeit money. She had to give the money up, but she lost that money. So why not use the pre-paid deibt card and or use your business check for your holiday purchases
